Nurses for Night Care

On behalf of the Irish Hospice Foundation, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to GlobalGiving for supporting our Nurses for Night Care service. The contributions made via the platform have made a significant impact, providing expert nursing care to those with life-limiting conditions such as dementia, motor neurone disease, and heart failure. 

Through the Nurse for Night Care service, families facing the heartbreak of a loved one’s final days can stay together at home, surrounded by love and comfort. This Christmas, your support can make moments like these possible — moments that mean everything when time is short. As one family shared, “It honestly felt like an angel appeared on our doorstep.” For Bairbre’s family, having a nurse by their side through her last night meant dignity, peace, and treasured memories: watching her favourite film, sharing laughter and tears, and ensuring her children could say goodbye. Every contribution helps provide this compassionate care, giving families the gift of togetherness when it matters most. 

 Every €400 provides a golden night of Nurse for Night Care — a night that brings peace, dignity and comfort to families during the most difficult hours. This vital service ensures loved ones can remain at home, surrounded by family, rather than in a hospital. Your generosity this Christmas can make that possible, giving families the gift of togetherness when time is short and memories matter most. On behalf of the families, thank you.
